| Doh. Sorry - I didn't see that line of the summary report. So that means that

|
| Ok and as for the Java - you're right, I DID have an old version on my comp.
| I didn't even look for it before b/c I didn't think I had it installed but I
| guess I was wrong. So now that I've uninstalled it, do I need to re-run those
| programs (mcAfee etc) or does removing them simply protect me from FUTURE
| attacks b/c the weaknesses are gone??
|
| THANKS SOOO MUCH DAVID! So far today I haven't had ANY popups (=a miracle).
| You've been a huge help.
| Thanks again, F

If you are no longer getting the Pop-Ups then yes... A combination of scripted removaland
signature removal seems to have cured your Vundo Trojan problem.
Ther old, and quite vulnerable, Sun Java was most likely the reason you were infected.
